Had this drop a couple days back in a normal Gun'drak run... no screenie (unfortunately), but not limited to just heroic.

Kommentar von trickztar

Dropped two times in one Heroic Gundrak for our group.

There appears to be some sort of bug with this cloak, I recently bought one of the Auction House as it was a clear upgrade over http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=42546, however when I equiped it I lost around .30 crit rating when i should have gained .18 crit.

Kommentar von GigaExplosivo

I just bought this on Proudmoore for 250g! I'm excited :)

Kommentar von sardokar63

It's a shame this currently is the best cloak in the game that contains both strength and crit strike rating. Of all the epic cloaks that are higher ilevel, none of them have both those stats (they're all agi/crit based).

This means some of us will be wearing a blue for a very long time.

Kommentar von Zawulon

I´m DK, don´t know about other classes but strength scales perfectly with our talents(Ravenous Dead, Shadow of Death in Unholy tree, Veteran of Third War in Blood tree), therefore i must say that this is best cloak you can get right now.

Kommentar von Mazuli

Saw a guy selling it for 25g today. I had to check the link twice because there's no way this cloak is only worth 25g. Needless to say I'm a very happy death knight.

This isnt necessarily true. Using the weight stats found on Elitistjerks.com, the Naxx capes are still better, just not by as much as you might think going from a BoE blue to a ilvl 200+ epic. By the math, I gainded 20 dps by going from this to Aged Winter Cloak, although thats an ilvl 213.

It shows you items you can get fairly easily before raiding to boost your DPS.

"Below is a sample listing of the Gear which a Death Knight would want to get to begin their Journey into Naxxramas 10. I've included several items which can be attained through Normal Dungeons, Heroic Dungeons and Crafting. I've also put in some quest rewards if no better drops are available from Normal Mode dungeons."

I'm wondering how much of an upgrade this, if at all, would be for a Fury; compared with this. I've done the compare on Wowhead, but have trouble seeing for myself which is better until I am equipping and unequipping while I have the Item in my possesion. I would rather not roll against someone that this would be a bigger upgrade for pre-raid.

Kommentar von Luqian

Just the most sexy cape :) 60 str. on a cloak is just imba !

Kommentar von Nessen

So I knew when I first saw this thing, I knew that for Ret Pallies (and most plate dps in general, but Ret Pallies most of all) that it was gonna be one of the better cloaks in the game, but as I look around more and more... Am I missing something, or will a Ret Pally be stupid to replace this before getting Drape of the Deadly Foe? Even the Drape has less AP overall than this for Ret. But once you add in the other stats, Drape seems to slightly pull ahead of this. I love this cloak, and certainly have no problem keeping it, but really? A BoE blue from one of the "easier" heroics trumps everything but one cloak from a 25 man raid? Seems a bit odd...

i think blizz should reconsider their stance on providing 1 physical badge item, one dps caster, one healer and one tank. they do this with cloaks, rings, necklaces. i NEVER buy the dps stuff for my dk except for mirror of truth, because frankly, im not a huge fan of agi+crit and ap. it doesnt scale with fallen crusader, it scales badly for warrs and rets especially.

right now we have 3 classes who benefit from strength greatly, and druids still do a little as well. why can´t they include more strength items in the game? like they are doing now with the new dalaran signet.

i don´t want to rant here. i was lucky to get this baby on my first gundrak hero run and i am not wasting my badges on badly itemized epics. i would love to replace my strength ring from nexus heroic with a badge ring, but there just is no strength available

Kommentar von WarCrime

I agree. They ought to make this a boss drop.

Kommentar von vampiric161

im not a huge fan of agi+crit and ap. it doesnt scale with fallen crusader, it scales badly for warrs and rets especially.

Actually agi and crit scale very well for warriors. 5 of our 8 "armor based" best-in-slot items are mail or leather simply because plate is itemized poorly for us.

EDIT: Err, meant to reply to 309blank. Oh well.

Kommentar von Gundrum

Got it yesterday on my 76 DK, so just letting ya'll know it drops on normal mode too.

Kommentar von colinvb

I Have Looted In Zuldrak Normal ! Sold It For Like 175g ^^

Kommentar von Veress

It is blue, but it is the best cloak for Blood and Unholy DK this time.

Kommentar von doder451

According to wowgala.com, this is one of the most popular items amongst the top500 pve-guilds worldwide.

Looking at the member of theses guilds, this is the second-most popular Cape-item of the class:

Unholy Death Knight

It's the third-most popular Cape-item for:

Hybrid Death Knight

Blood Death Knight

Kommentar von brian420

Both of you are incorrect.

fr0d0b0ls0n: It does not drop in Guldrak, rather the instance Gundraksinnur: You did not drop this in the instance, however a random mob or boss did.

Kommentar von Nanika

It's nice to see Blizzard realizing how well they itemized this and basing the stats on two of the new cloaks in Ulduar on it. Thank goodness I might finally be able to really upgrade my blue after five months.

While I am excited to see new, well-itemized capes in the game however, I'm not entirely sure why Blizzard wants to normalize and compartmentalize all the dps drops to being either hunter/rogue/druid/enh shaman or warrior/pally/DK with the new Ulduar gear. I mean, on paper it's a pretty good idea, so that you don't have 11 people in a raid all after the same item (even though you sort of still do with some things >_> ), but really, it just lowers the chances that any one person is going to see what they want drop, since there are only one or two such items that cater to them now. Guess there's no real good solution.

Kommentar von Pallis

heh, Funny how blues can be unreplacable...or damn near. Tank trinkets for example(stamina) are ALL blue(Pre-Ulduar) You got the essence of goss, the JC trinks, the engineer trinks and the alchemy trinks all blue, and UBER. When i was building my ret offset somone told me to get this and after actual pimping the set out in off-drops, I havnt seen a drop yet that could replace it(Pre-Ulduar).I dd see one off 25 man KT...But im off-spec ret and it wasnt much of an upgrade...

Kommentar von Jigain

Bought this on AH for 20g today. So all you out there looking for it, keep an eye out on mornings especially, there's always someone who figures it's just worth a few pennies.

Kommentar von Overcome

I just found out about this cloak today. Checked maxdps and saw it was definitely a huge uprade from the one I had on. I quickly log back on and hit the AH. It's sitting on there for 89g. YAY! This has been the highlight of my day.

Kommentar von captinfred

This cloak is the win for ret paladins, especially if you are hit capped. With Divine Strength and Blessing of Kings it's worth 150 AP. Your next upgrade is the

Kommentar von ccharger6565

Are u guys sure this is better than Ice striker and deadly triumph or victory cloak! I mean it feels weird going to a blue item!

Kommentar von spillmind

should tell you how much the devs actually play. i'm guessing not a lot.

Kommentar von lazygirl4996

Random trash drop in Gun'drak on Heroic difficulty.

Kommentar von Cyberflix

Very surprised to see it drop in normal Gundrak yesterday...I won it heh heh (Full Ret Paladin)
